Benefits of technology

"The present invention provides a wind-powered pneumatic engine that can convert wind resistance airflow into mechanical power, without consuming fuels or discharging waste gases. The engine includes impeller chambers and impellers, and an air-jet system for jetting high-pressure air (HPCA) into the chambers. The HPCA is then regenerated and stored in an air tank for use in a motor vehicle. The technical effects of the invention include improved efficiency, reduced emissions, and improved performance of the wind-powered engine."

Problems solved by technology

Engines using fuels as an energy source consume a large quantity of fuels, and discharge large amounts of waste gases and hot gases, which pollute the environment.
Since the mechanical devices installed with the engines do not move at a speed, the engines can only passively receive limited wind force under natural weather, ambient and wind conditions for driving impellers to operate and generate the mechanical kinetic energy.

Abstract

A wind-powered pneumatic engine including one or more impeller chambers and one or more impellers disposed in the impeller chambers is provided. One or more air inlets for receiving external wind resistance airflow are disposed on the impeller chambers, and the external wind resistance airflow entering the air inlets drives the impellers to operate to generate power output. The wind-powered pneumatic engine further includes an air-jet system for jetting HPCA into the impeller chambers, and the internal high-pressure compressed air jetted by the air-jet system in conjunction with the external wind resistance airflow entering the air inlets drives the impellers to operate to generate power output. In the present invention, the external resistance airflow around a motor vehicle moving at a speed is converted into power for use, which greatly reduces energy consumption and improves the moving speed of a motor vehicle. A motor vehicle equipped with wind-powered pneumatic engine is also provided.
